Definitely it's the water pump, When my van started this noise and overheated I found it was the water pump it cost me only 50 bucks to buy but to put it on (as I didn't have enough time) I had to pay some one 350 bucks. At this time you should change the timing belt too. If you could do it your self, it won't cost you more than 60 bucks.

Grand Cherokee overheated and now will not start?

Run a compression test. When engines overheat the head(s) often warp causing the head gasket to blow. If you find low compression between any two cylinders OR if any of the sparkplugs are wet with water or coolant as you do the compression test, it's the head gasket and warped head. BTW, that's one of the most common problems that shows up after an engine has overheated.


Your Mazda B2500 overheated you replaced the radiator but the coolant will not enter the block and the engine just heads for the red when you have to shut it off It seems as if it could be air-locked?

It is possible that it is air locked. Try squeezing the upper and lower hoses to release any air and make sure the radiator is full, sometimes jacking up the front helps. It could also be a bad thermostat so replace that if you have not done so already.


Can a bad head gasket cause white smoke to come out of the exhaust?

Heavy white smoke is usually caused when the engine burns transmission fluid, such as when the modulator valve is defective, causing transmission fluid to be sucked into the intake system. A stuck closed thermostat could cause the engine to overheat. If the engine overheated badly and repeatedly, a cylinder head could crack and allow coolant to enter the combustion camber. This condition would cause white smoke to blow out the exhaust.

The coolant temp. sensor could be bad....or the thermostat could be stuck shut.....there are a few things it could be actually


1999 neon new starter just clicks?

If you have already replaced the battery, then you have a few other things to look at.It could be the starter itselfit could be the starter solenoid which might be integrated with the starter or mounted somewhere in the engine compartment. You can find it by tracing the thick positive wire (red - about the size of a finger) to where it goes. If it goes directly to the starter then the solenoid is integrated and more difficult to testIt could be the positive wire itself and is not making a good connection to the battery or starter/starter solenoidIt could also be the ground wire (Black - about the size of a finger). If this wire is not making a good connection from the battery to the engine block, it will keep the starter from workingI would start with the wires, making sure you have a good connection and then work your way to the starter. The clicking is usually a result of the starter not getting enough current to crank the engine.
